Wednesday 11th November

Oxford Life Group AGM    Blackfriars 7:30

Andrea Minichiello Williams will speak on the topic, Cheap life – what price life in a consumerist society?

AGM of the Oxford Life Group

The Oxford Life Group AGM, to be held at Blackfriars, St Giles, Oxford on Wednesday 11nd November 2009 at 7.30pm.

We are very fortunate this year in having as our speaker Andrea Minichiello Williams, who will speak on the topic, Cheap life – what price life in a consumerist society? As you will see from the enclosed poster, Andrea is a barrister, and has been working as a Christian lobbyist in the Legal and Public Policy arena in the United Kingdom for over 10 years. She is Director of Christian Concern for our Nation (CCFON), and of the Christian Legal Centre (CLC), its sister organisation, which is involved in taking a number of high-profile Christian freedom and life cases. I should add that she is an extremely inspiring speaker, and in these times when the battle to legalise assisted dying and euthanasia is growing in intensity, the evening promises to be not just lively and stimulating, but also extremely challenging.
